In this episode we cover an introduction to skepticism -- the view that denies we can ever truly know something -- and how it came to impact Montaigne's thought.  Skepticism is not a simple perspective: there were disagreements among the early skeptics as to what it means to be skeptical.  We explore the beginnings of skepticism in the ancient Greek and Roman world and the particular type of skepticism that would come to deeply influence Montaigne.  Enjoy!
